Tossing around the Idea of trying for my Level 3 again since I never did find my last rocket....If you happen to live in Southern Wyoming and found a nice large blue and silver rocket please return it. Main deployed at apogee and it drifted away, Garman Astro, dog collar, never reacquired lock after boost, we saw it pop the main and drift away but it went into some clouds and lost it. Used an RRC3 and 2.
So here we go for round 2, this is just an idea I am tossing around, I don't have any parts yet and am just playing around with open rocket at work on a design.
I fell in love with the GLR Nuclear Sledgehammer a few years ago and keep telling myself to buy one but never seem to remember when I have the money. Always spend it on car parts...those things are expensive. And 3FNC was fun the first time, now I want something cool looking.
So here is my rip off design for a 6" version. I will not be using Lugs, i just put them on for kicks, and the weights are not correct, just want to get people thoughts. 1 av bay not 3, and a space in the nose for a tracker.
I used an Aerotech M1350 DMS on my last one, but I think I will go out and buy a case this time. Probably use M1297, but since every other motor i have is CTI, I may go that route. Soooooo many choices... Altitude is not an issue, 35k waiver in northern Colorado. Once i get back there that is, stuck in Tennessee atm.
